Hi guys!

I want to replace the starter motor, i have the new starter motor..but..

I cant remove it!I cant see the last bolt of the shroud (the cover of starter motor)
Later, i think i will not can to remove the upper bolt of the motor becouse i can see it!!

Is necesary to remove another parts before, like, exhaust manifold, oil filter..??

I have the haynes manual, its look like very simple, but the photos show the motor out the car, and then, to remove the starter motor ist very easy!!

Thanks!!

i think there are a couple of heat shields that can come off that make the job easier. doesn't hurt to take out the oil filter too.

it really is a little bit of a pain in the arse, but shouldnt take that long.

cheers

Hello Santi. What a surprise!

I've just written to you in porschete's forum. Good luck with your starter.
